Book Tongues  Volume 1

Download or read book Tongues Volume 1 written by Anders Nilsen and published by Random House. This book was released on 2025-03-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating graphic novel retelling of Prometheus from one of the very best artists working today. Set in a version of modern Central Asia, Tongues is a retelling of the Greek myth of Prometheus. It follows the captive god’s friendship with the eagle who carries out his daily sentence of torture and chronicles his pursuit of revenge on the god that has imprisoned him. Prometheus’s story is entwined with that of an East African orphan on an errand of murder, and a young man with a teddy bear strapped to his back, wandering aimlessly into catastrophe (a character readers may recognize from Nilsen’s Dogs and Water). The story is set against the backdrop of tensions between rival groups in an oil-rich wilderness. Created by the three-time Igantz award-winning artist Anders Nilsen, Tongues is both an adventure story and a meditation on human nature in our present fraught, historical moment.

Book Unraveling the Art of Speaking in Tongues

Download or read book Unraveling the Art of Speaking in Tongues written by Abiodun Abozos and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-02-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speaking in tongues is another issue lingering within the so-called followers of Christ of this dispensation. While some believed it to be a compulsory gift expected of every Christian, others believe it is a gift, and thus should not be made compulsory. How true is this? Even to those that speak the tongues, one would want to know, what is the basis of the tongues? According to the book of 1st Corinthians 13:1, the bible recorded only two tongues, which were first spoken and noticed in the life of the Apostles as witnessed on the Pentecost day. Why do Christians of this generation find it difficult to understand these tongues from the event of Acts 1:8-17? Since speaking in Tongues is a gift, should it be compulsory tongues for Christians? What particular tongues should be spoken and why are there no interpreters of tongues, but people are only interested in speaking the tongues? What is the exact language of tongues speaking? So I ask myself. Do I speak in tongues? If No! Why? And if Yes! What kind of Tongues do I speak? Do I or the People around me understand what I speak? Who do my spoken tongues edify: God, Me, People, or the Church? And who should it edified? These and many more Speaking in Tongues related issues have been analyzed and explained in this book: "Understanding Speaking in Tongues" You can't afford to miss out on a book like this if truly you are a Christian.

  • Release : 2000-10-17
  • ISBN : 1439106398
  • Pages : 226 pages

Download or read book Tongues of Angels written by Reynolds Price and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2000-10-17 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I'm as peaceful a man as you're likely to meet in America now, but this is about a death I may have caused. Not slowly over time by abuse or meanness but on a certain day and by ignorance, by plain lack of notice. Though it happened thirty-four years ago, and though I can't say it's haunted my mind that many nights lately, I suspect I can draw it out for you now, clear as this noon. I may need to try." Set in a summer camp in the Blue Ridge Mountains during the deceptively tranquil 1950s, The Tongues of Angels is a story of the twenty-one-year-old painting teacher, a superbly gifted boy, and their advance toward a startling fate. As the now-older man looks back at on that summer, he reflects on the meanings he thought he had learned on the threshold of manhood from the perspective of full maturity.

Book Venomous Tongues

Download or read book Venomous Tongues written by Sandy Bardsley and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sandy Bardsley examines the complex relationship between speech and gender in the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries and engages debates on the static nature of women's status after the Black Death. Focusing on England, Venomous Tongues uses a combination of legal, literary, and artistic sources to show how deviant speech was increasingly feminized in the later Middle Ages. Women of all social classes and marital statuses ran the risk of being charged as scolds, and local jurisdictions interpreted the label "scold" in a way that best fit their particular circumstances. Indeed, Bardsley demonstrates, this flexibility of definition helped to ensure the longevity of the term: women were punished as scolds as late as the early nineteenth century. The tongue, according to late medieval moralists, was a dangerous weapon that tempted people to sin. During the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, clerics railed against blasphemers, liars, and slanderers, while village and town elites prosecuted those who abused officials or committed the newly devised offense of scolding. In courts, women in particular were prosecuted and punished for insulting others or talking too much in a public setting. In literature, both men and women were warned about women's propensity to gossip and quarrel, while characters such as Noah's Wife and the Wife of Bath demonstrate the development of a stereotypically garrulous woman. Visual representations, such as depictions of women gossiping in church, also reinforced the message that women's speech was likely to be disruptive and deviant.

Book The Unbridled Tongue

Download or read book The Unbridled Tongue written by Emily Butterworth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-02-12 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unbridled Tongue looks at gossip, rumour, and talking too much in Renaissance France in order to uncover what was specific about these practices in the period. Taking its cue from Erasmus's Lingua, in which both the subjective and political consequences of an idle and unbridled tongue are emphasised, the book investigates the impact of gossip and rumour on contemporary conceptions of identity and political engagement. Emily Butterworth discusses prescriptive literature on the tongue and theological discussions of Pentecost and prophecy, and then covers nearly a century in chapters focused on a single text: Rabelais's Tiers Livre, Marguerite de Navarre's Heptaméron, Ronsard's Discours des misères de ce temps, Montaigne's 'Des boyteux', Brantôme's Dames galantes and the anonymous Caquets de l'accouchée. In covering the 'long sixteenth century', the book is able to investigate the impact of the French Wars of Religion on perceptions of gossip and rumour, and place them in the context of an emerging public sphere of political critique and discussion, principally through the figure of the 'public voice' which, although it was associated with unruly utterance, was nevertheless a powerful rhetorical tool for the expression of grievances. The Cynic virtue of parrhesia, or free speech, is similarly ambivalent in many accounts, oscillating between bold truth-telling (liberté) and disordered babble (licence). Drawing on modern and pre-modern theories of the uses and function of gossip, the book argues that, despite this ambivalence in descriptions of the tongue, gossip and idle talk were finally excluded from the public sphere by being associated with the feminine and the irrational.

Book The Prosthetic Tongue

Download or read book The Prosthetic Tongue written by Katie Chenoweth and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2019-10-04 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the cultural "revolutions" brought about by the development of printing technology during the sixteenth century, perhaps the most remarkable but least understood is the purported rise of European vernacular languages. It is generally accepted that the invention of printing constitutes an event in the history of language that has profoundly shaped modernity, and yet the exact nature of this transformation—the mechanics of the event—has remained curiously unexamined. In The Prosthetic Tongue, Katie Chenoweth explores the relationship between printing and the vernacular as it took shape in sixteenth-century France and charts the technological reinvention of French across a range of domains, from typography, orthography, and grammar to politics, pedagogy, and poetics. Under François I, the king known in his own time as the "Father of Letters," both printing and vernacular language emerged as major cultural and political forces. Beginning in 1529, French underwent a remarkable transformation, as printers and writers began to reimagine their mother tongue as mechanically reproducible. The first accent marks appeared in French texts, the first French grammar books and dictionaries were published, phonetic spelling reforms were debated, modern Roman typefaces replaced gothic scripts, and French was codified as a legal idiom. This was, Chenoweth argues, a veritable "new media" moment, in which the print medium served as the underlying material apparatus and conceptual framework for a revolutionary reinvention of the vernacular. Rather than tell the story of the origin of the modern French language, however, she seeks to destabilize this very notion of "origin" by situating the cultural formation of French in a scene of media technology and reproducibility. No less than the paper book issuing from sixteenth-century printing presses, the modern French language is a product of the age of mechanical reproduction.
